Comprehensive electrical services for homes and businesses — licensed, insured, and backed by our workmanship guarantee.

Generator Installation

Keep your home powered through any outage with a professionally installed backup generator. Enjoy uninterrupted comfort and security when the grid goes down.

Ceiling Fan Installation

Improve airflow and cut energy costs year-round with a new ceiling fan. Proper installation ensures wobble-free operation and maximum efficiency in every room.

Electrical Inspection

We examine your panel, wiring, outlets, switches, grounding system, and GFCI protection room by room, then deliver a detailed written report with findings and recommended corrections.

Landscape Lighting Installation

Highlight your home exterior, illuminate walkways, and boost curb appeal with professionally designed landscape lighting. A well-lit property also deters intruders and prevents trips and falls.

Electrical Panel Upgrade

Aging panels with Federal Pacific, Zinsco, or fuse-based systems are documented fire hazards. Our licensed electricians replace them with UL-listed equipment that meets current NEC safety standards.

Circuit Breaker Repair

A faulty circuit breaker that trips constantly or will not reset leaves your home without power and at risk. Fast professional repair restores reliable power and eliminates a potential fire hazard.

Electrical Repair Services

Ignoring electrical problems lets them get worse. Loose connections, arcing wires, and overloaded circuits cause thousands of house fires each year. Our licensed team fixes issues safely, the first time.

EV Charger Installation

Charge your electric vehicle overnight at home and wake up with a full battery every morning. A Level 2 charger delivers up to 10x faster charging than a standard outlet.

Smoke Detector Installation

Battery-only smoke detectors fail when batteries die. Our electricians install hardwired units with sealed backup batteries per current code, ensuring your family is protected around the clock.

Recessed Lighting Installation

Recessed lighting installed too close to insulation or with incorrect housings is a fire risk. Our electricians use only IC-rated, airtight fixtures and verify every connection for safe operation.

Ring Doorbell Installation

We mount your Ring doorbell at the optimal height, run low-voltage wiring from your existing doorbell transformer, and configure the app so you are up and running in one visit.

Outlet Installation

Our electricians locate the nearest power source, run new wiring through your walls, install the outlet box, and test the circuit to confirm safe, reliable operation.

Hot Tub / Pool Electrical Wiring

Enjoy your pool or hot tub with confidence knowing the electrical system was installed safely by a licensed professional. Proper wiring prevents shock hazards and protects your family every time you swim.

Carbon Monoxide Detector Installation

We install hardwired CO detectors at code-required locations near bedrooms and fuel-burning appliances, interconnect them with your smoke alarm system, and verify operation with professional testing equipment.

Smart Home Electrical

Smart devices need proper wiring to function reliably. Many older homes lack neutral wires in switch boxes, causing flickering or device failure. Our electricians verify and upgrade wiring so your smart home works right.

Whole House Surge Protector

Power surges destroy electronics, damage appliance control boards, and can even start fires. Our electricians install UL-listed surge protectors with proper grounding to defend your entire electrical system.

Commercial Electrician Services

Minimize downtime and keep your business running with commercial electrical services designed for offices, retail spaces, warehouses, and restaurants. Reliable power protects your revenue and your reputation.

Electrical Wiring & Rewiring

Homes built before 1980 often have degraded insulation, undersized circuits, or knob-and-tube wiring that insurance companies flag as unacceptable. Our licensed electricians bring your wiring up to current NEC standards.

Electrical Installation Services

We review your project requirements, pull necessary permits, install wiring and devices using commercial-grade materials, and schedule the final inspection to close out the permit properly.

Security Camera Wiring

Wireless cameras lose signal and batteries die at the worst time. Hardwired security camera systems installed by our licensed team provide continuous, tamper-resistant surveillance you can rely on day and night.

Electrical Troubleshooting

We use thermal imaging, multimeters, and circuit analyzers to trace faults through your wiring, identify the exact failure point, and recommend the most cost-effective repair.

Indoor Lighting Installation

Heavy chandeliers, track lighting, and pendant fixtures require properly rated electrical boxes and secure mounting. Our electricians ensure every installation is safe, level, and wired correctly.

Aluminum Wiring Replacement

We carefully remove aluminum branch circuit wiring, pull new copper conductors through your existing pathways, terminate every connection at outlets, switches, and the panel, and restore your walls.

JJC Electric provides fully licensed, insured electricians for every job in Lead — residential and commercial.

When should I upgrade my electrical panel in Lead?

If your Lead home still has a 100-amp or smaller panel, uses fuses instead of breakers, trips breakers frequently, or you are adding major appliances like an EV charger or hot tub, it is time for a panel upgrade. JJC Electric installs 200-amp panels that handle modern electrical demands safely.

How much do electrical services cost in Lead?

Electrical service costs in Lead vary by project. Outlet installations typically run $150 to $350, panel upgrades $1,500 to $4,000, and whole-house rewiring $8,000 to $20,000 depending on home size. JJC Electric provides free written estimates for all electrical work in Lead, SD with no hidden fees.

Should I install a whole-house surge protector in Lead?

Absolutely. Lightning strikes and power grid fluctuations are common in Lead, and a single surge can destroy thousands of dollars in electronics and appliances. A whole-house surge protector installed at your panel by JJC Electric guards every circuit in your Lead home for a fraction of the replacement cost.

"Our 1970s fuse box was long overdue for an upgrade. JJC Electric replaced it with a modern 200-amp breaker panel. They labeled every circuit, replaced the meter base, and passed inspection on the first try. Should have done this years ago."

— Carolyn B.
